A Ratification is Final.

‘*p a ii rrrni’. The New York Herald expresses the opinion that the newly elected Legislature of New York, being Copperhead, may rescind the.vote- of rulifi<»U(>n (of.tho Fifteenth Amendment already made by (that State. ‘ : A rescinding 'resolution would not be sa&ste the act is linal so far as that Slate is concerned. A State may withold her consent; an<L if one-fourth of all the States withhold their.till ptitoOeH amendment is not adopted, A LegGlaturela not Ixffind' to act on an amendment. It may vote noti hekl.it wonts, against the ratification; but, whenever a mujoriiy of each branch .of the Legislature votes to ratify, the sanction of the State is given, and the act is irrevocable. The Constitution makes no provision for rescinding. State votes of ratification at any subsequent period. The power of the State over the question id exhausted when its Assent has been obtained in the mode prescribed by the Constltuticfn. .Thelfonaal ratification dflhe Fifteenth Amendment by the State of New Yorkhas been certified to tlie State Department by the Governor, and that ends thc matter, so brae that State is concerned. Amendments to the Constitution are not like foot-balls, to be kicked back wards and forwards between Congress and the State Legislatures, but are solemn, irreversible acta of the law-making powers of the National and State Governments, and eadb Mep incomplete in Itself. Congress caniiot recall an amendment afttfr It has been submitted to the States any more than a State can recall its assent after it has agreed to the amendment. For New York to reacted her ratifica.tion would be io commit an outrage and a flagrant wrong on twenty-one sister States which have ratified the amendment, and oh thwrwmming Stales which intend do-« mg SR Playing fast and loose in that way iS MMhkiliing hnt onntemplatod, or permitted by the Constitution, which points out how a Stateouq/ consent to an amendment, but prescribes no mode of undoing the act.? Let those who claim that a State may rescind its ratification citea clause of lhe ’CmnMtutimi of the Pasted States which authorizes it to be done.
